Fota Island Resort is nestled at the heart of a peaceful island, surrounded by gorgeous scenery in County Cork.

Naturally beautiful, Fota Island Resort lies in a 780 acre estate which includes the five star Fota Island Hotel & Spa, the Fota Island Golf Club & Golf Academy and self catering lodges. Avenues lined with magnificent oaks and sycamores meet the visitor at the gates of Fota Island Resort and lead them through this tranquil retreat, an elegant and relaxed place where life seems to run at an altogether more leisurely pace.

Fota Island Golf Club, designed by Jeff Howes, has championship golf courses set amongst beautiful parkland scenery, maintained to the very highest of standards to ensure year round golfing enjoyment. Surrounded by tall oak trees, and bathed in peace and quiet, Fota Island Golf Club provides the perfect backdrop for the perfect game.

The Deerpark, the course that hosted the Irish Open in 2001 and 2002, with its receptive greens and strategic bunkering, impresses even the most experienced professionals. The Belvelly, a Par 72 course stretching over 7121 yards from the championship tees, includes the recent nine-hole layout developed by Jeff Howes. The Barryscourt, a Par 73 course, also incorporates the recent Jeff Howes nine-hole layout. With 7362 yards to be negotiated, a great opportunity to produce a good score beckons on this course which is characterised by gently undulating greens, where all putting games are seriously examined!

The three courses incorporate some unique and exciting features, intended to challenge even the most competitive golfer yet remaining perfectly loyal to the traditional style, values and playability that characterise golf at Fota Island Resort as a whole.
